YouTuber Stauffer rehoming adoptive child.

I saw and shared this story yesterday, it's interesting to me that the couple raised the money for he adoption through a crowdfunder, failed to be honest with followers (no that I think you should expect answers necessarily because you donated cash) and then yes, 'rehomed' this little boy because they didn't quite think it through.

She said that Huxley would be going to his "new forever home" which for a child is complex to understand, I think, let alone a child with autism if he deal in black/white situations and absolutes.

His home with them should have been his forever home or he shouldn't have been placed with them in the first place. Myka was the one to say that with international adoptions it's difficult to get all the information but they both failed to either get the information they need to make an informed choice or simply didn't realise how difficult and expensive it would be. Their foolishness cost this little boy more trauma.

Their four children must be confused about where their new brother went.

I would be very concerned about how he was 're-homed'. I hope proper agencies were involved. Americans adopting from abroad is fraught with issues and not properly regulated although a lot of countries are clamping down on it.

This is quite a sobering read albeit a few years old now.

I'm not critical of adoptions breaking down, it happens to a proportion everywhere, even under well regulated systems. But this particular case is quite unpleasant due to the crowd funding, social media and using the child to profit.

A family with that many small children of their own should not have been able to adopt any child never mind one with significant SN. Even with the best of intentions (which are dubious in this case) those parents were going to be spread too thinly to give Huxley the time and intervention he would need to thrive.

She says the baby has been ''rehomed'' to his ''forever home''. I find her choice of language disturbing

"Forever home" is the expression used by animal re-homing charities. It's not offensive there but for a child, it's dreadful.

As pp says; the vitriol is directed to myka as she is the one who has made the most statements, and who largely controls their social media. James is also attracting criticism, but I rarely criticise Melania for what trump says, so why would I criticise james for what his wife says?

The comments are aimed at the mother because she's the vlogger running the SM account, and she used incredibly offensive language to describe what happened.
